Extensive research and development applied by SGS engineers to the JetStream technology over a number of years has resulted in a method of ensuring coolant is efficiently supplied to the shear zone – the interface between the cutting edge of the tool and the raw material of the workpiece that is being cut away.

The coolant helps maintain thermal stability, provides lubrication for the cutting action and also flushes the swarf away to reduce the chance of ‘stirring’ or re-machining the chips.
